Guest Post from Dr. Robert Owens documenting the transformation of the U.S. being attempted by Barack Obama from the worlds greatest capitalist society to a socialist!
If he did all of these in one-term, do we really want to give him an opportunity to finish the job?
Socialism is as Socialism Does by Dr. Robert Owens
Ronald Reagan taught
us, “How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin.
And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and
Lenin.”
Barack Obama’s mentor as a young man was communist party
member Frank
Marshall Davis. As a community
organizer he was a follower
and promoter of the communist
fellow-traveler Saul Alinsky’s methods and goals. As a professional in Hyde Park he associated with socialist
radicals such as Bill
Ayers. As an up-and-coming
Chicago Politician he attended the church of Reverend Jeremiah Wright,
an outspoken proponent of the socialist
Black
Liberation Theology. As president he appointed communist Van Jones to be one of
his many Czars. Mr. Obama says he
is not a socialist. However,
simple logic tells us if it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, and quacks
like a duck you can be relatively certain it’s a duck.
Mr. Obama has told us that he seeks to be a transformational
president like his idol FDR.
He was bold enough to tell us just days before the election in 2008 that
he would fundamentally
transform America. In just one
term he has accomplished much along the way to changing us from what we have
always been into what the Progressives have always wanted us to be.

Mr. Obama is leading us from being the first among nations
to being just another vote in the United Nations. Now there’s a level playing field for you. And now it’s time for another election,
some say our most important, some say perhaps our last.
In many ways this election cycle is refreshing. For generations the Progressives have
pretended to be something they are not to win elections. They have pretended to be dedicated to
the American dream of personal liberty, economic freedom and the belief that
America was different from other nations, that as the world’s first and most
enduring modern experiment in a republic based on limited government we were
exceptional. Although the policies
of the Progressives have always been at odds with this assumed identity at
least every election cycle they would tip their hat to the America of our
fathers and portray themselves as a Thomas Jefferson or an Andrew Jackson.
Therefore, 2012 is shaping up to be the election where the
Progressives cast aside their mask and run as who they are: the American
version of socialism promising to tax the rich and spread the wealth around,
from each according to their ability to each according to their need.
If Mr. Obama wins re-election on this platform the
Progressives will finally have their chance to give Americans the same kind of
cradle-to-grave utopia the happy people of Russia, China, North Korea, and
Hitler’s Germany have had the fortune to endure. If Mr. Obama wins re-election espousing the true intentions
of the Progressives, to change the constitution from a rock solid foundation
for freedom into a living document that is a dead letter, he will succeed at
his vow to fundamentally transform America.
As to his utopian beliefs and aspirations
President Obama has said, “I am confident we can create a Kingdom right here on
Earth”
President Reagan also
told us, “Socialism only works in two places: Heaven where they don't need
it, and hell where they already have it.”
*Lists of Mr. Obama’s firsts are found numerous places. The sources referenced for each first
are merely representative of the many available for each.
